As the application of power batteries continues to expand, their market demand is also growing.

[0052] The power-consuming device in the embodiments of the present application can be a mobile device such as a vehicle, a ship, or a small aircraft. Taking a vehicle as an example, the vehicle in the embodiments of the present application can be a new energy vehicle. The new energy vehicle can be a pure electric vehicle, a hybrid vehicle, or an extended-range vehicle. Figure 1A vehicle 2000 is shown using a battery 1000 as a power source. Battery 1000 is disposed within vehicle 2000. A drive motor is provided within vehicle 2000, electrically connected to battery 1000.

[0054] refer to Figure 3 The battery module 100 includes multiple battery cells. These cells are electrically connected via connectors. These cells can be connected in series, in parallel, or in a hybrid configuration. Of course, the term "battery module" simply describes an array of multiple battery cells. A battery module can be formed by first connecting multiple battery cells in series, in parallel, or in a hybrid configuration, and then further connecting multiple battery modules in series, in parallel, or in a hybrid configuration to form a complete battery. A battery module can also refer to a battery pack.

[0055] A battery cell is the smallest unit that makes up a battery module. A battery cell may include a lithium-ion secondary battery, a lithium-ion primary battery, a lithium-sulfur battery, a sodium-lithium-ion battery, a sodium-ion battery, or a magnesium-ion battery. This is not limited to the embodiments of the present application.

[0056] A battery cell includes a housing, an end cap, an electrode assembly, and other functional components. The housing is a component used to cooperate with the end cap to form an internal environment of the battery cell, wherein the formed internal environment can be used to accommodate the electrode assembly, electrolyte, and other components. The housing and the end cap can be independent components, and an opening can be provided on the housing, and the internal environment of the battery cell can be formed by closing the opening with the end cap. The housing can be made of a variety of materials, such as copper, iron, aluminum, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, plastic, etc., and the embodiments of the present disclosure do not impose any special restrictions on this.

[0057] The electrode assembly is the component within a battery cell where the electrochemical reaction occurs. The housing may contain one or more electrode assemblies.

The electrode assembly can be a wound or laminated structure, but the embodiments of this application are not limited thereto.

[0058] The pole piece is a sheet-like structure. During the process of winding or stacking at least two pole pieces, the corners of the pole piece are prone to folding, squeezing and damage, which in turn causes a reduction in the yield.

[0059] To solve the above problems, some embodiments of the present application propose a pole piece, the corners of which include concave arcs, so as to avoid the pole piece body from being folded or squeezed and damaged during the winding or stacking process, thereby improving the yield rate of battery production.

[0060] The following is based on Figures 3 to 10 The structure and working process of the explosion-proof valve in some embodiments of the present application are described in detail.

[0061] refer to Figures 3 to 10 The pole piece 10 provided in some embodiments of the present application includes a pole piece body 1. The pole piece body 1 includes a first side 11 and a second side 12 disposed adjacent to each other, and a corner portion 13 disposed between the first side 11 and the second side 12. The corner portion 13 includes at least one concave arc segment 131 concave toward the inner side of the pole piece body 1.

[0062] The pole piece 10 of the embodiment of the present application is a sheet-like structure. Figure 3 The main structural diagram of the pole piece 10 is shown, that is, the orthographic projection of the pole piece 10, and the orthographic projection refers to the projection of the pole piece 10 on its central plane. The pole piece 10 includes a pole piece body 1 and a pole ear 2. The pole ear 2 is arranged on the pole piece body 1. The orthographic projection of the pole piece body 1 is roughly rectangular, and includes two first sides 11 arranged opposite to each other and two second sides 12 arranged opposite to each other. The first side 11 extends along the longitudinal direction X, and the second side 12 extends along the transverse direction Y. The first side 11 and the second side 12 are adjacent to each other and perpendicular to each other. The first side 11 and the second side 12 are connected by a corner 13. The pole piece 10 is a sheet-like structure with a certain thickness, so the corner 13 is also a surface structure. In the description of this embodiment, the shape of the orthographic projection of the corner 13 is used for description, refer to Figure 3 The corner 13 includes a concave arc segment 131 that is concave toward the inner side of the pole piece body 1. This makes the corner 13 of the pole piece body 1 concave inward, resulting in a missing corner, thereby avoiding the problem of folding or extrusion damage. Figure 3In the embodiment shown, the pole piece body 1 includes four corners 13, each of which is formed as an inwardly concave notch and includes a concave arc segment 131. However, in other embodiments, some of the corners 13 may be notched.

[0063] The above-mentioned corner portion 13 is provided between the first side 11 and the second side 12 of the pole piece body 1 of the embodiment of the present application. The first end of the corner portion 13 is connected to the first side 11, and the second end of the corner portion 13 is connected to the second side 12, that is, the corner portion 13 extends from the first side 11 to the second side 12. The corner portion 13 includes a concave arc segment 131. The concave arc segment 131 is at least a part of the corner portion 13. For example, in some embodiments not shown in the accompanying drawings, the corner portion 13 is a concave arc segment 131 extending from the first side 11 to the second side 12. For another example, Figures 3 to 10 In each of the illustrated embodiments, a portion of the corner portion 13 is a concave arc segment 131 .

[0064] The corner 13 of the pole piece body 1 of the embodiment of the present application includes a concave arc segment 131, which is concave inward to form a missing corner. In this way, during the winding or stacking process of the pole piece, the corner of the pole piece body 1 is not easily folded. Moreover, because it is concave inward, it is not easily squeezed by external forces and thus avoids damage under external pressure, thereby preventing the battery from becoming a substandard product and improving the yield rate of battery production. In addition, the corner of the pole piece body 1 is not easily folded, which can effectively prevent the problem of puncturing the diaphragm due to the folding corner of the pole piece body 1 during battery operation, thereby improving the reliability of the battery.

[0065] refer to Figures 3 to 8 In some embodiments, the corner portion 13 includes two concave arc segments 131 .

[0066] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the corner portion 13 includes two concave arc segments 131, and the two concave arc segments 131 are connected by a straight line segment 132. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the corner portion 13 includes two concave arc segments 131 and a straight line segment 132 disposed between the two concave arc segments 131. A vertical line connecting segment 133 is disposed between one of the concave arc segments 131 and the first side 11. Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the corner portion 13 includes two concave arc segments 131 and a straight line segment 132 disposed between the two concave arc segments 131. A convex arc connecting segment 134 is disposed between one of the concave arc segments 131 and the first side 11.

[0067] The corner 13 of the pole piece body 1 in the embodiment of the present application includes two concave arc segments 131 , which can increase the inward concave range of the corner 13 of the pole piece body 1 and further reduce the possibility of the corner folding.

[0068] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the corner portion 13 further includes a straight line segment 132 disposed between the two concave arc segments 131. The straight line segment 132 is tangent to the concave arc segments 131.

[0069] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, one of the two concave arc segments is directly connected to the first side 11, and the other concave arc segment is directly connected to the second side 12. The two concave arc segments are connected by a straight line segment 132. In this way, the portion of the corner 13 close to the first side 11 is a concave arc segment 131, and the portion of the corner 13 close to the second side 12 is another concave arc segment, that is, the two ends of the corner 13 are concave inward, and the middle part of the corner 13 is formed into a straight line segment 132. Since the two ends of the corner 13 are parts that are easily subjected to external forces, the two ends are set as concave arc segments to avoid damage caused by external force. The corner 13 is formed into a notch, which can improve the problem of easy folding. Therefore, the middle part of the corner 13 is set as a straight line segment without further concave inward, which can improve the easy folding without affecting the energy density of the battery.

[0070] The corner portion 12 of the embodiment of the present application includes two concave arc segments 131 and a straight segment 132 arranged between the two concave arc segments 131, and the straight segment 132 is tangent to the two concave arc segments 131, so that the surface of the corner portion 12 is smooth and stress concentration is avoided.

[0071] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 as well as Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the first side 11 extends along the length direction X of the pole piece body 1. The second side 12 extends along the width direction Y of the pole piece body 1. The two concave arc segments 131 include a first concave arc segment 131a disposed near the first side 11 and a second concave arc segment 131b disposed near the second side 12. The first concave arc segment 131a is connected to the first side 11 via an intermediate connecting segment.

[0072] like Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the first side 11 extends along the length direction X, and the second side 12 extends along the width direction Y. The first concave arc segment 131a is disposed near the first side 11, and the second concave arc segment 131b is disposed near the second side 12. The second concave arc segment 131b is connected to the second side 12, and the first concave arc segment 131a is connected to the first side 11 via a perpendicular connecting segment 133.

[0073] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the first concave arc segment 131 a is connected to the first edge 11 through a convex arc connecting segment 134 .

[0074] The first concave arc segment 131a of the corner portion 13 of the embodiment of the present application is connected to the first side 11 through the middle connecting segment, thereby preventing the corner portion from being folded or squeezed and damaged.

[0075] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the middle connecting segment includes a vertical connecting segment 133 perpendicular to the first side 11 .

[0076] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the vertical connecting segment 133 is connected to the first concave arc segment 131 a and extends along the width direction Y.

[0077] The pole piece 10 of the embodiment of the present application sets the middle connecting section as a vertical connecting section 133 perpendicular to the first side 11, so that the end of the corner 13 close to the first side 11 is further concave inward, further avoiding the folding problem.

[0078] In some embodiments, the length of the vertical connecting segment 133 is 0.1 mm to 60 mm.

[0079] The length of the vertical connecting section 133 can be adaptively adjusted within the above range according to the size of the pole piece body 1 .

[0080] refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the middle connecting section includes a convex arc connecting section 134 protruding toward the outside of the pole piece body 1. The convex arc connecting section 134 is smoothly connected to the first edge 11.

[0081] In the embodiment of the present application, the middle connecting section is configured as a convex arc connecting section 134 smoothly connected to the first side 11 , thereby achieving a smooth transition between the end and the corner of the first side 11 and avoiding stress concentration.

[0082] In some embodiments, the radius of the convex arc connecting segment 134 is 0.2 mm to 60 mm.

[0083] refer to Figure 9and Figure 10 In some embodiments, the corner portion 13 includes a concave arc segment 131 and two convex arc segments 135 respectively arranged on both sides of the concave arc segment 131, and the two ends of the concave arc segment 131 are tangent to the two convex arc segments 135 on both sides, and the two convex arc segments 135 are tangent to the first side 11 and the second side 12 respectively.
